Extract clean markdown from any URL. Removes boilerplate. For RAG pipelines. x402.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server that scrapes web pages and returns clean markdown, with single-URL and batch tools, paid per call via x402.

What you can do
  • Scrape a single URL with JavaScript rendering and get back title, description, markdown content and word/character counts
  • Scrape up to 10 URLs in one batch call and receive per-URL results plus a summary of totals and failures
  • Strip navigation, ads, scripts and boilerplate so the output is ready as LLM input for RAG corpora and research
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs readable page text from web sources for summarization, research or building a RAG corpus, especially across several URLs at once. It is not intended for screenshots, SEO audits, tech-stack detection or web search.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint added to the client configuration; no API key or signup. Payment is required per call through the x402 protocol in USDC on Base L2, so an x402-capable client and a funded wallet are needed. Network access to the endpoint.
Before you install
Every call costs money: $0.012 per single scrape and $0.05 per batch of up to 10 URLs, settled in USDC on Base L2 through a crypto wallet, so an agent can spend funds automatically. Requests send the target URLs to a third-party service, and the README points to a wider marketplace of paid APIs.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Web Scraper to Markdown API in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via SSE. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.Br0ski777%2Fweb-scraper/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

When to use: building research corpora, comparing content across competitor pages, or bulk documentation extraction. Essential when you have 3+ URLs to process in one workflow.

Not for: single URLs (use web_scrape_to_markdown), SEO comparison (use seo_audit_batch).
